And this Christmas, after giving all of the people making under $4oo.ooo.oo annually, a lifetime of free Big Macs, I would like to convince congress to start the incremental roll-back of gun ownership in this country.

Was there ever any doubt that a dream world is available? Would you like to know more? Send One Million Dollars to this addre…

If the employees do not wish to work on Christmas they have the right to refuse. If they are terminated due to their decision they are free to find another job. This policy of profits over observance of a religious holiday is the company’s right, though I find it a greedy and disrespectful one.

One of my first jobs was working at McDonald’s. My time there motivated me to get good grades, finish school and find a career that didn’t leave me smelling like McNuggets and Big Macs. Perhaps this policy of working through holidays will likewise motivate McDonald’s employees to take steps to transition to better employment. It doesn’t take another government program or handout, it takes hard work and commitment.

I used to work at a McDonald’-like business. Adjusted for CPI I used to make $14/hour. That was before the lefties opened the border and flooded the market with millions of low skilled workers, driving down wages for everyone else.

You must have not lived in a “right to work for less” state. We’ve had that in Utah for decades now.

I used to work for a McDonalds like business too. I worked in the same business for 32 years and spent 25 years without changing jobs in my last quarter century in the business. I never made more then $15/hour as a certified optician making “fast food” eyeglasses. When Lenscrafters took over the place, they started closing the in-store labs down and since I was over 50 years old, I became old news.

I have been a food handler for almost 6 years now, and I’m a damn good one. Never asked anybody for a dime in my life, but I’m making half what I used to and have no health insurance.
